Hermione woke up the next morning and stiffened immediately when she opened her eyes and was not met with the familiar site of her bedroom. Her first clue was by how dark the room was. Her room was always lit up in the mornings because of the sunlight that would stream in through her curtains. She felt someone stir next to her, and her eyes immediately snapped over in that direction. She figured out who it was instantly, because even in the dark Draco's platinum blonde hair was impossible to mistake. She then pieced everything together and realized that she was in Draco's bedroom.
"Morning" Draco said huskily, stretching as he started waking up.
"Malfoy? Why am I in your bedroom, more specifically your bed?" Hermione asked.
Draco sat up and looked at her, now fully awake.
"You fell asleep on me on the couch and I couldn't get you into your room without your password and I didn't want to leave you on the couch" Draco stated.
"Oh. Well that was very nice of you. Thank you" Hermione said getting up.
"Hermione? Are you okay?" Draco asked observing her.
Hermione looked over at him oddly with how easily her first name flowed from his lips.
"Yeah, I'm fine" Hermione said quickly. "Thank you once again for letting me sleep in here. I gotta go, I'll see you later."
Draco watched Hermione leave in a rush. What the hell was wrong with her? Why was she acting so different.
And then it dawned on him..
"Oh fuck" Draco stated as he realized the reason for her behaviour. Hermione was no longer under the influence of the love potion. When he had confessed his true feelings for her last night while she was sleeping, it triggered the one counter effect that broke the spell of the potion,
He looked at the door that she had just made her way through and ran his hand through his hair in frustration. He needed to figure out what to do.

Hermione sat down on her bed, her head a jumbled confusion. She took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. She remembered everything that had happened while she was under the influence of the love potion. Even though she was literally present for the entire thing, it was like a part of her was in a dream. All she knew was that at one moment she couldn't stand Draco, and the next she was madly in love with him. She knew now that she had been under the influence of a love potion, however while under it, she believed that what she had felt for Draco was true.
She felt like a complete fool. The things she had did in order to try and get his attention! How embarrassing. She didn't know what to do. Hell, she didn't even know why the potion had worn off all of a sudden.
All she was currently feeling was complete confusion. Confusion because she went from hating Draco, to being madly in love with Draco, to not knowing what to think anymore. Now that she was back to normal, when she thought about Draco, all she felt was the resentment that she had felt for him throughout the last 6 years, but, then when she would think about the way he kissed her or acted with her while she was under the influence, it threw her emotions and thoughts for a spin.
If she was going to be completely honest, she liked the side that Draco had revealed to her. She liked the nice Draco, the side of him that he kept hidden from everyone else. She wouldn't even have known that side of him existed if she hadn't of experienced it for herself.
Hermione felt her face flush as she remembered the kisses that they had shared. She had never been kissed that way from a guy before. She had kissed other guys, but none of them were near as passionate as the way it was between her and Draco.
Was he completely serious about all of the things he had said to her? He seemed sincere about everything he said, and acted like he meant it, which confused Hermione even more. She needed to talk to Ginny.

"Morning Hermione!" Ginny said brightly, a smile on her face as her best friend made her way towards the Gryffindor table.
"Morning Gin" Hermione said.
"What's wrong? Did you and Malfoy get into a fight after we left last night?" Ginny asked picking up on Hermione's mood immediately.
Before Hermione could respond, the Great Hall doors opened and Hermione and Ginny both looked up. Blaise and Draco made their way into the Great Hall, and by the way they were standing, it seemed that there was some tension between the two of them.
Draco looked over at Hermione, and their eyes locked. She felt her face heat up and she looked away, her face beat red.
Ginny watched the interaction closely, and noticed that when Hermione had looked away from Draco, she saw an emotion flicker quickly over his face. She could have sworn he looked upset? But he had masked his emotions so fast she couldn't be certain. She looked at Blaise, and saw that he too was watching Hermione and Draco closely. He then averted his eyes towards her, and she felt herself blush. Blaise smirked at her and sent her a wink.
Ginny turned her attention away from Blaise, and over to Hermione.
"So what's going on with you and Malfoy?"
"Nothing" Hermione said quickly.
"Nothing?" Ginny asked.
"That's correct" Hermione stated.
"So I'm assuming with how indifferent you are about us talking about him, and you're not all doey eyed and staring at him longingly like you normally would, that the love potion finally wore off" Ginny stated. "So what happened last night that made the potion wear off?"
"Nothing happened. All I know is, that I fell asleep on the couch, and next thing I know I'm waking up in Malfoy's room" Hermione said.
"Wait, you woke up in Malfoy's room?!" Ginny exclaimed.
"Why don't you say that a little bit louder, I'm sure all the rest of the students would love to hear that one" Hermione snapped.
"Sorry. But you can't just throw something like that at me and not expect me to freak out!" Ginny stated lowering her voice. "Anyways, explain."
"Honestly Gin, there is nothing to explain. I don't know what happened okay? Malfoy said I fell asleep on the couch, and that he couldn't get me into my room without my password, so he took me to his room instead of leaving me to sleep on the couch. And then I woke up this morning laying next to him in his bed."
"You guys were in the same bed?!" Ginny exclaimed quietly this time.
"You're just as shocked as I am" Hermione stated.
"Well, something had to have happened while you were sleeping then. I don't know what countered the effects of the potion, but whatever it was, it had to have occurred last night" Ginny said thinking out loud.
"Yeah, I agree I just don't know what. It's a very strong potion, one that isn't taught to students, that much I know. Snape assigned it to Malfoy for his advanced potion class. So I'm assuming that means it's stronger than your typical love potion, meaning that countering its effects are extremely difficult. But, like I said, I'm not overly certain as to what this counter effect was. I never really looked into love potions, they weren't something that I felt the need to study" Hermione said responding to Ginny.
"Well then, it looks like me and you are going to have to figure out what broke the spell of the potion" Ginny stated.
"Why?" Hermione asked.
"To be completely honest, I'm curious as hell to figure out the reason behind it. Tell me you're not the least bit curious?" Ginny asked.
"Alright, fine. Maybe I am a little bit curious" Hermione admitted.
"Good! I'll talk to Zabini and see what he has to say about the whole thing" Ginny stated.
"Since when do you talk to Zabini?" Hermione asked curiously.
Ginny's face went red and she said "Well, it's something that has just been happening recently I guess. Since you were all head over heels for Malfoy, and they're best mates, and me and you are best friends, we ended up associating with each other."
"There's something you're not telling me.." Hermione stated observantly.
"No there's not" Ginny answered quickly.
"Gin, just like you can tell when I'm lying, I can tell when you're lying. We're best friends for a reason. So tell me what's going on" Hermione said softly.
"He kissed me" Ginny blurted out.
"And you like him" Hermione stated smiling.
"I do not!" Ginny exclaimed.
"Gin, seriously?" Hermione said amused.
"You're not mad?" Ginny asked.
"Why would I be mad?" Hermione asked confused.
"He's a Slytherin, and he's Malfoy's best friend" Ginny stated.
"So? I haven't ever had a problem with Zabini, and honestly, even if I did I wouldn't care if you liked him as long as he makes you happy and he treats you properly. Since my best friends has the hots for my 'boyfriend' I guess I'm going to have to shatter his poor heart and break up with him" Hermione said shoving Ginny playfully.
"Oh shut up. You guys were only dating to make Malfoy realize his true feelings for you" Ginny said shoving Hermione back.
Hermione stopped smiling and said "Yeah, I know."
"What are you going to do?" Ginny asked seriously.
"Honestly? I have no idea" Hermione said as she glanced over towards the Slytherin table.
